Memento Mori… ‘Don’t forget that you must die’. The Latin reminder may sound grim, but it’s actually a warning that life is short, and we should remember that we’re all mortal – and live our lives as such! Our Memento Mori Gloves feature a classic skull worked in single crochet tapestry. The pattern includes 2 sizes: Medium and Large, Stitch Fiddle links, charts, and a written pattern. So, what are you waiting for? It’s time to celebrate life by creating these gothic gloves – perfect for chilly Autumn nights and Halloween. The model has 16cm wrists and is wearing a size Medium.

Our patterns are written a little differently with pattern beginners and neurodivergent crafters in mind. The abbreviated instructions are followed by a breakdown in italics, making it easier to understand what you need to crochet in each row/round. If you’ve had trouble reading crochet patterns in the past, we hope that you’ll give ours a try!
